BUG: API - album creation: quoted keywords are ignored

NikolaiNikolai Registered Users Posts: 19,035 Major grins
As HDVideo reported, it's not currently possible to enter quoted keywords via S*E. I debugged the issue and realized that no matter what I do, SM server ignores keywords entry after the quote is encountered.

I tried several approaches:
#1: "bad" characters are "orded":
< member>
< name> Keywords< /name>
< value> & #34;quoted keywords& #34; & #34;las vegas& #34; o& #39;neil< /value>
< /member>

#2: quotes and apostrophes go "as is":
< member>
< name> Keywords< /name>
< value> "quoted keywords" "las vegas" o'neil< /value>
< /member>
Both result in the empty keyword string on a server, although album is successfully created.

In captions and descriptions either aproach seem to work fine.

Please provide a fix or at least a recommendation how to enter quoted keywords for the production API for albums creation.

Thanks!

    Nik, I had to take this out of the main SmugMug bug reporting thread. Nothing's changed since Onethumb asked that all API bugs be placed in this forum, one bug to a thread, titled:

    BUG: Blah blah blah

    Thank you for your cooperation.
